Stephen Craig - Kasse (Flowers)

1 sheet from a series of 6 color lithographs from 2007. "Since the late 1990s, Stephen Craig has been realizing projects for public space, such as pavilions, which are sculpture, architecture, social platform and metaphorical image in one. His work is multidimensional. (...) In recent years, the annual fair has become one of his central themes. Craig has been photographing fairground booths on the Hamburg Cathedral since the beginning of 2000. "What attracted me above all was the handcrafted self-manufactured nature of many traveling shops and the glaring colors, which are both beautiful and are ghastly, crass and loud." (Stephen Craig, in: Künstler, Kritisches Lexikon der Gegenwartskunst, Munich 2006) The fairground theme leads Craig to bright colors and new forms." Website Griffelkunst Hamburg
